THE KNIGHTS OF FATHER MATHEW.
Lecture of Father ODonaghue to Members
of the Organization Last Evening.

The largest audience that the Knights OF
Father Mathew have yet brought together was
assembled at Masonic Hall, last night to hear
Father O'Donaghue. of st. Patrick's Church.
He congratulated the Knights of Father Mathew
on the appreciation of their efforts shown by the
large audience in the face of the dsagreeable
evening. The Knights have special mission and
while there is an enemy to be met, and foe
to be overcome this mission will go on The
Knights do not mean to dictate to any oneswAas
they must wear, or what they must eat what
they must drink. They are not society for re-
formed drunkards; indeed, there is not one in
the society to whom that term would apply.
They to society what army in time of
peace is to a commemorative safeguard
against the enemy The appetite for alcohol is
notinherited;i tits contracted. When young man
starts out wrong he is liable to end in the aims
house. When young man joins the Knights
he is guarded against the temptations Of liquor.
From temporal point of view there is no
money in drinking; there is no pleasure, for the
associations of the drunkard are of the most vile
character The speakers exhortation to young
men to join the Knights Of Father Mathew was
very forcible and eloquent He spoke for nearly
an hour, and was listened to with close atten-
ton.
The remainder of the programme consisted of
installation of officers vocal music by Miss Josie
Shields, Miss Mamie Carey, Miss Lizzie Tierney;
instrumental music by Miss Annie Reagan Miss
Lizzie Dugan. Professor Kohl the K. of L..
Quartet, Harris and jenkins, and recitation by
Miss Addie OBrien.

The Conauehton Murder To Be Investigated

Last week brought no new developments in
the Conaughton murder case. The police have
abandoned work on the case, and the only hope
of securing the guilty person now rests with
what the next grand jury may do. It is given
out that they will make thorough investigation
Of the affair. The fatal shot was fred from the
seale-shed, and the man, whoever he was, could
easily have been seen from the front gate of the
Flesher residence. Patrolman Wilson's testimo-
ny before the Mayor was that he was on the op-
posite side of the street when the shooting oc-
Cured. He ran rapidly across to the Flesher
residence, and there he saw a woman leaning on
the gate. She had evidently been there during
all the shooting and the officer believes that she
knows who fired the shot. for from her position
she conld not have avoided seeing the man. It
is, furthermore, stated that there are two women
on South Illinois street VINO were in the house
at the time and who have stated that they
know who did tho shooting and that so far no
effort has been made to secure the guilty person
